Famous quotes containing the words images and/or doors:
“We are all of us imaginative in some form or other, for images are the brood of desire ...”
—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
“Science has done great things for us; it has also pushed us hopelessly back. For, not content with filling its own place, it has tried to supersede everything else. It has challenged the super-eminence of religion; it has turned all philosophy out of doors except that which clings to its skirts; it has thrown contempt on all learning that does not depend on it; and it has bribed the skeptics by giving us immense material comforts.”
—Katharine Fullerton Gerould (1879–1944)
